Linn and Rueben Close to Eggs at Yellow Pages.

March 26, 2012 - Scarborough - Yellow Pages

Tracy Simpson Reports:

Yesterday when I arrived at the Yellow Pages nest site, I found Linn on the southwest corner of the building whining for Rueben.  She was down in the “shoulder” which the pair use for nesting and at first I couldn’t see Rueben.  I saw something on the pipes of the roof, took a picture but initially dismissed it as a part of the structure.  After looking at the pic, I realized that it was in fact Rueben looking like a windblown puffball.  Indeed the winds were high and Rueben took off to the southwest for another perch.  Linn followed shortly only to return to the same spot as she was before.  A few minutes later, up to the pipes she went where she slept for a good hour.  I went in and spoke to Paul at security who has been exceptionally helpful with observations and support ( thanks Paul! ) and back out I went for a few more observations before leaving.  It is quite clear that they have chosen this particular side ( southwest ) this year in contrast to the northwest site they had chosen last year.  As I was leaving, Linn was on the pipes above her chosen site and Rueben flew in and landed on the nest ledge corner.  I am sure that no eggs are currently in the nest based on the behaviour of the pair but looking at Linn, they are not far off I’m sure!!  In the picture I posted of the building, please note the yellow circle I placed over the spot the pair have chosen.
